Mine does, and, I, also, become quite tongue-tied. I notice that I am somewhat nervous when it happens, which is almost, the entire duration of a phone call, unless I am speaking to a family member, or, a person I am quite familiar with. It does occur when conversing in person, however, to a lesser degree.
I wonder if it is due to social anxiety, or, something else. My mind will, literally, draw a blank, several times, if not constantly, throughout the conversation. I can, even, forget my own phone number, of which I’ve had memorized for the past 10 years. Unfortunately, I just jumbled my words and what I’d wanted to convey, as all the information that had been stored in my mind, vanished, and, I imagine that I made very little sense, if any, when speaking to a prospective employer over the phone.
I wonder if there might be a way to overcome this. Thanks very much in advance, for any advice/words of wisdom you may have to share.
